Cat's Attic Gangnam Seoul South Korea

Cat's Attic Gangnam Seoul South Korea
Cat Cafe

This week I took a lunchtime trip to a local cat cafe called Cat's Attic.

Details: 010 9708 0500
              02 3481 3123
            www.godabang.com

I was pleasantly surprised at the great staff who spoke great English and were very friendly and helpful! The cats were also excited to see the customers and were not afraid to climb on people and explore your bag. A lot different from other cat cafe's I have seen where the cats are all sleeping. Here there were 20 or so active cats looking for attention or sometimes fighting with each other. ^^
The cost was 8,000 won with a complimentary drink. I managed to take some photo's of the cats and a video of some of their antics.

So if you are in the area it is very easy to find from Gangnam Station. Take either exit 9 or 10 and then look at the map below. ^^ Straight out of exit 9 turn immediately right and you will see some stairs leading to a street. Walk half way down the street until you see a 7/11 and look up. From exit 10 take the alley immediately to your left walk through and look up for the cat cafe sign.

Novotel Hotel Cherry Dessert Buffet Gangnam Seoul South Korea

Novotel Hotal Cherry Dessert Buffet Gangnam Seoul South Korea.

This week we went on a delicious trip to the Novotel Hotel in Gangnam for a dessert lunch.

Held on the ground floor of the Novotel at 2pm and in the evening (at 7pm? but I am not sure) for 35,000 won per person you can enjoy a vast array of well presented desserts with cherries.^^

You can also choose a beverage to go with your desserts; Cherry Coke, Black Current juice and another option I cannot remember? Maybe tea?

Anyway there is also some cold tea on tap that you can help yourself to to wash down all that sugar.

Lets have a look at a few pictures from the day:

Ripley's Believe it or not Jeju Island South Korea

Ripley's Believe it or not Jeju Island South Korea

My last update for Jeju Island is about Ripley's Believe it or Not. Located close to the major hotels and right next to Kraze Burger is the world renowned Ripley's Believe it or Not. Probably my most favorite attraction on Jeju, Ripley's showcases all the weird and wonderful from all over the world. Strange sculptures, paintings, artworks and interesting people. Some of the highlights include the rice grain portraits, the toast artwork, torture room and all the strange and unusual people from around the world.

Here is the official site for more info:

Soingook Theme Park Jeju Island

Worldwide miniature buildings theme park.

Another update from Jeju Island. This week we visit the miniature theme park containing hundreds of notable buildings and structures from all over the world.

A very fun place to go and take pictures next to famous landmarks all in one place. ^^

As per usual it was raining as I took pictures of the buildings (if you are a long time reader some of you may remember my visit to a similar theme park near Bucheon Aiins World when it also rained as I was taking photos. ^^ http://rawrkorea.blogspot.kr/2011/07/lotte-shooting-range-science-of-aliens.html)

So at 8,000 won the park it quite big and has a place to rest and have a snack inside the park and then you can continue on to the second half of the display.

A really great place to visit. Lets have a look at some pictures and a Youtube video:
